Although, I think it will be impossible to do away with money, as it is
too
convenient of a medium for markets, so it simply won't go away. But I
agree
with everything else you say below
No problem: we just have to do away with markets, too.
But will all 6.5 billion people on this world really do away with money and
markets, which have been with us for over 10,000 years now, at least? It
just doesn't seem likely to me.
But, it does seem likely to me that people will figure out how to make a new
*kind* of market and a new *kind* of money, both of which are biomimetic in
nature, and work entirely different than existing markets...
I have said so before, various times.
(And you may, or may not, have noted that there are no markets in peer
production.)
Money and markets are just the two sides of the same coin. Markets without
money are terribly inefficient, and money without markets (without places
were you can buy something) wouldn't be money at all.
